Abstract:
Liver in relation to dentistry is the topic of this chapter. Structure and function of the liver are discussed: metabolism of nutrients and toxins, exocrine functions, and synthesis of key proteins. Drugs and the liver are then discussed: the role of plasma proteins in transport or binding drugs; the liver’s role in metabolizing drugs; and the liver’s role in excreting some drug products into the bile. The effects of chronic excess alcohol on the liver are described and the role of the dentist in spotting potential liver problems in dental patients. The impact of liver disease on patient physi

Abstract:
The liver with its parenchymal and non-parenchymal cells plays a key role in the organism with manifold functions of metabolism, synthesis, detoxification, excretion, and host response. This requires a portfolio of different tests to obtain an overview of hepatic function. In the critically ill hepatic dysfunction is common and potentially leading to extrahepatic organ dysfunctions culminating in multi-organ failure. Conventional laboratory measures are used to evaluate hepatocellular damage, cholestasis, or synthesis. They provide valuable (differential) diagnostic data and can yield prognost

Abstract:
Drugs are an important and common cause of hepatic injury. This is unsurprising, as the liver is a major site for drug clearance, biotransformation, and excretion. A careful history of drugs taken (prescribed, over the counter, herbal, or illicit) is vital when assessing anyone with abnormal liver function tests. Although toxic or idiosyncratic adverse reactions may occur with many therapeutic agents, drug-induced jaundice is not so common.

Abstract:
Liver cirrhosis is a serious condition where healthy liver tissue is replaced by scar tissue, leading to a decline in liver function over time. This article provides a complete guide for patients, families, and the general public to understand what liver cirrhosis is, how it develops, and what can be done to manage it. It begins with an overview of the condition and explains the different types, including those caused by alcohol, viral infections, and metabolic diseases. The article outlines major risk factors like chronic hepatitis, alcohol abuse, obesity, and genetic disorders, helping reade

Abstract:
It is important for rheumatologists to have an understanding of biochemical tests including an awareness of their limitations. The biological variability of an analyte both within and between individuals, the limitations of the measurement technology, the sensitivity of laboratory internal quality control and external quality assurance procedures, as well as interlaboratory variations in practices including sample collection procedures, may all impact on the interpretation of a result. Biochemical tests are often requested to monitor organ-specific dysfunction arising as an adverse consequence

Rickettsia, Ehrlichia, and Anaplasma are infections primarily transmitted by ticks (but, in the case of certain Rickettsial species, are transmitted by other vectors as well), which can cause an abrupt, febrile, and flu-like illness often associated with headache, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, rash, elevated liver function tests, and thrombocytopenia. Disease can be severe, particularly when patients are infected with Rickettsia rickettsii (Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever); patients may develop central nervous system involvement, shock, and multiorgan failure.

Abstract:
Four to five per cent of the Western population suffers from chronic diarrhoea (defined as the passage of >3 stools per day, for >4 weeks), with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) being the commonest cause in 20–40-year-old patients. It is the commonest reason for referral to secondary care gastroenterology clinics. The list of possible causes of chronic diarrhoea is long but, in the absence of rectal bleeding, loss of weight, or abnormal blood tests, it is unlikely to be due to a serious illness. Laboratory investigations should include serum glucose, electrolytes, renal and liver tests, fu
